Aust vs USA game from 2016 Olympics

OK so last night I found my copy of Australia vs USA from the 2016 Olympics in Rio. It's a 3GB file. I will see if Youtube lets me upload it. Otherwise I will upload it to Dropbox or Google Drive. Will have a try tonight :)

2004 Olympics was one of the best competitive (not warmup) games. A Boomers team with nearly all NBL players and leading at 3QT, ultimately losing by 10.

Found the 2008 Olympic warm up game against the USA, we lost by 11 points and with Bogut out injured too.

The 2001 Goodwill Games team wasn't much, either.


Better than this team though.

Shane Battier, Calvin Booth, Baron Davis, Marcus Fizer, Rashard Lewis, Shawn Marion, Kenyon Martin, Andre Miller, Mike Miller, Jermaine O'Neal, Wally Szczerbiak, Jason Terry.

Has anyone got a list of all the games and scores the Boomers have played the USA since they begun using NBA players?

From memory I'm pretty sure the first time was at the '94 World Champs, that warm up game before the '96 Olympics, again at the '96 Olympics proper, I know we played them at the '98 Goodwill Games in New York I think in the final but that was a college team due to the lockout.

The warm up game in Melbourne before the 2000 Olympics, again at the 2000 Olympics proper, I think we played them at the 2001 Goodwill Games in Brisbane, the 2004 Olympics?, not sure about the 2006 WC, pretty sure we played them twice for the 2008 Olympics in a warm up and the Olympics proper and I think in one of those games we came the closest to beating them losing by about 10 points.

2010 World Champs I don't remember it I think we did at the 2012 Olympics, 2014 World Cup I can't remember and forgot we even played them at the 2016 Olympics.

Anyway always loved these games against the USA I'm looking forward to tomorrow night probably the weakest USA team we've played with NBA players.

The warm up game in Utah before the '96 Olympics is the only Boomers vs USA game worth a repeat viewing, Shane Heal knocking down step back 3's in Stockton's face and the infamous Heal vs Barkley chest bump.

The game from 2004 was good... until the last quarter.
